Collection overview
Title:
Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth Papers
Date range:
1854-1861
Creator:
Ellsworth, E. E. (Elmer Ephraim), 1837-1861
Extent:
1.0 linear foot
Abstract:
The Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth Papers, covering the
period 1854-1861, consist of correspondence, a journal
fragment, drafts of his writings, and sketches concerning
Ellsworth's involvement with the Illinois Militia, the United
States Zouave Cadets, and the New York Fire Zouaves,
along with memorabilia about Ellsworth and his military
career that was produced some time after his death.
Language of materials:
English
Repository:
John Hay Library Special Collections
Collection number:
Ms.Ellsworth
Scope & content
The Ellsworth Papers consist of approximately 225 items covering the period 1854-1861.
The collection consists primarily of correspondence, but includes some official state
documents from Illinois and Wisconsin, a fragment of Ellsworth's journal from 1855, and
drafts of various other writings, along with a small selection of memorial objects.
The papers came to Brown from the family of John Hay, and form part of the John
Hay Collection. After Ellsworth was killed in May 1861, his grieving parents received
many offers to write his biography. However, it was only John Hay's letter that moved
Ellsworth's parents to pursue the project. Hay, working with a committee of Ellsworth's
friends, collected materials to be used in the biography, which he published in the Atlantic
Magazine later that same year. (See John Hay, Ellsworth, Atlantic Monthly VIII (1861), pp.
119- 25).

Hay met Ellsworth when both men were in Washington as part of Lincoln's staff. Hay's
memorial to Ellsworth thus reflects the personal knowledge of a friend and compatriot.
Ellsworth, like Hay himself, was a close associate of Lincoln, and in that regard the
collection is also substantially related to the McLellan Lincoln Collection at the Brown
University Library.
Arrangement
The collection is divided into five series:
• Series 1. Correspondence
• Series 2. Documents
• Series 3. Miscellaneous manuscripts
• Series 4. Printed items and prints
• Series 5. Sketches
Series 1 (Correspondence) is ordered alphabetically by author of the letter, then
chronologically. Series 2 (Documents) is ordered chronologically. Series 3 (Miscellaneous
manuscripts) is ordered alphabetically by item type. Series 4 (Printed items and prints) is
ordered alphabetically by author.
Biographical/Historical note
Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth was born in Malta, New York, in 1837, and grew up in nearby
Mechanicsville, in a poor and struggling family which depended on his labor. Although he
longed to be a soldier and aspired to attend the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, his
family's economic situation forced Ellsworth to leave home at age 17 to seek his fortune.
Settling in Chicago, Ellsworth was to hold various jobs as a clerk and later as a patent
solicitor in Chicago. He simultaneously became commander of a volunteer militia in Illinois.
Following an encounter with a French military officer in 1857, he introduced the French
Zouave drill method and became its principal promoter in the United States. Ellsworth's
U.S. Zouave Cadets, in colorful uniforms that Ellsworth himself designed, enjoyed some
popularity with the public, which led in turn to an eastern tour and a performance for
President Buchanan at the White House in 1860.
At some point, Ellsworth was advised by his prospective father in law to seek a career
in the law. He subsequently found a position as clerk in Abraham Lincoln's law office.
Although his ambitions in the law did not last long, he and Lincoln became fast friends.

When Lincoln ran for president, Ellsworth was among his staunch supporters. After the
firing on Fort Sumter and the attack on the 6th Massachusetts Regiment in Baltimore in
April 1861, Ellsworth made a tour of New York City firehouses, seeking volunteers to form
a regiment of Zouaves. The First New York Fire Zouaves (officially known as the 11th New
York Infantry, and informally as "Ellsworth's Zouaves") were mustered within ten days and
quickly shipped out to Washington to join the Union forces. With his unit assigned to assist
in the capture of Northern Virginia, Ellsworth led the assault on Alexandria and was shot
by a local innkeeper after removing a Confederate flag from the roof of the inn. He was the
first Union hero of the war, and was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. He thus
came to occupy a prominent place in Civil War iconography. Numerous poems, pieces of
sheet music, and other memorials were composed in his honor, and an entire generation of
baby boys, born in the Union states, were named for him.
